CI Licence Violation ?

[eluser]huzzel[/eluser]
Hi,

i felt in love with ci 6 Monts ago. I wrote some CRUD-Applications and now i think about to sell the libraries,controllers,models and views i wrote.

I dont want to violate the CI-Licence and want to know how i could sell my CRUD-Application.
Is it allowd to release the library on a licence like lgpl or crypt it with ioncube ?

Apparently you haven't searched the forums well enough... and if you've read the license, well the answers are there too.

5.Products derived from the Software must include an acknowledgment that they are derived from CodeIgniter in their documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution.

Product
something that is produced, result of manufacturing; goods, merchandise; (Mathematics) result obtained by multiplying quantities together.

Merchandise
trade, buy and sell goods; plan for and promote the sales of, market goods (also merchandize)

Side note: Derek Allard made a invoice system called Bamboo Invoicing so they seem to promote us to sell the product of CodeIgniter.

[eluser]huzzel[/eluser]
so no official statement exists about selling a Product based on Codeigniter ?

Please go and waste somebody else's time.

...

Seriously now, "for any purpose" would presumably include "in exchange for money" - wouldn't you think?
